York outlined efforts to boost state staff in egg processing and noted two thirds of Federal-State programs are state run with 65 plants surveyed and about 20 expected to qualify by July 1 1971. Remaining eligible plants may operate until June 30 1972. The group backed a Penn State Advisory Council egg symposium and a $25 invitation donation to Pennsylvania senators and wives.
